“I talk with CEOs across the globe who are disappointed in the HR people. They would like to be able to use their chief human resource officers (CHROs) the way they use their CFOs – as sounding boards and trusted partners – and rely on their skills in linking people and numbers to diagnose weaknesses and strengths in the organization, find the right fit between employees and jobs, and advise on the talent implications of the company’s strategy. But it’s a rare CHRO who can serve in such an active role.”

– Ram Charam, “It’s Time to Split HR,” Harvard Business Review, July 2014
